I would have no problem with that as long as they put it on the table for voters at the beginning by saying it is a possible outcome. It's possible that some Liberal voters would prefer to keep the Conservatives than to invite the NDP to help form the government and so the voters have a right to know that before they vote.

In some countries, the possibility of coalitions is implicit, I think because it is not the norm in Canada, it would deserve discussion before dropping that bomb after an election.
